Now, this would of course decrease mass shootings, since most mass shooters have no prior experience as criminals and would not be as easily able to access the black market which would certainly still exist (on a massive scale) for firearms

so in your own words it would be very effective at preventing these types of tragedies but also it totally won’t work

It would be somewhat effective at preventing mass shootings, but not the vast majority of gun homicides. The majority of gun murders aren’t mass shootings, they’re gang hits, and gangsters would still have loads of guns if America put strict gun controls in place due to the sheer volume of guns in this country.

people don’t get guns out of thin air most guns sourced in gang activity are bought legally and then have the serial removed. it’s very common to have someone who has an out of state id buy guns in a less regulated state to bring them into a more regulated one (specifically states that don’t do federal background checks or allow for private sales with little to no regulation) since importing guns illegally is difficult and expensive already.

If this is true, disarming average citizens would be extremely dangerous for them

Even in states where private sales are legal, if the seller is selling to someone who cannot legally possess a firearm, they are guilty of a felony

that’s not really true to how gangs tend to operate they’re not getting in shootouts with random civilians who are defending themselves with white ar 15s against roving bandits like modern day skyrim or some shit.
